Check in thread for late jan / early feb mummies

My midife has just done my mebrane sweep. She said my cervix was soft but not dilated yet.

I have everything crossed that this works so i dont have to be induced on thursday.
 
every 8-10 mins now, really getting uncomfortable.... cross your fingers for me!!!
 
Yay Petchy, good luck!!

Jojo - fingers crossed the sweep will get things going for you.

Pips - you poor thing, I wouldn't be impresed falling off the loo when I'd just woken up either! Are you staying in your flat after baby is born? If so you'll be able to get your own back when little one cries in the night and they are trying to get their rest! :lol:

:cry: no signs at all.... in fact I think I should go and introduce myself on the March due club!

I have a sweep booked for Friday, I'm just hoping the MW can do the sweep and that my cervix isn't too hard and long (I think I read that Kx couldn't have a sweep because this was the case?)

My house is getting cleaner by the day, perhaps my baby is waiting until it's been done from top to bottom :lol:

Got our last parentcraft class tonight,(there is a short extra session next monday as the physio missed one of the nights but we're not going to it as if I'm still here I can't hack them all saying "oh are you still here" etc!!)

ok, less than 5 mins between them now... but they're still not THAT painful, i can manage to keep a conversation through them... somehow imagined they would be much worse than this when they were this frequent... hmm. just like period pains from hell really.

keep wondering if i should call the MW or not, they just don't seem painful enough, but they're fairly frequent. or maybe i've got a high pain threshold??

oh i just don't know........
 
It really sounds like this is it!! I would call MW just so they know, you may just have a high tolerence or you were expecting it to be worse then it is! Good Luck and be sure to let us know what is happening!!!

Petchy it sounds promising!!!!!

Good Luck!!

some promising news. Sorry if TMI but just been to the loo and some blood stained jelly stuff, only a tiny bit though i think it could possibly be the start of a show.
 
well hels hasn't been back so i'm guessing that's her very happy somewhere...

and petchy and jo jo sound as if they are off as well (fingers crossed jo jo)

so lucy, there we are the two of us racing for scotland :lol:
i just wish the race would really start hehe
 
Petchy - good luck, hopefully you're well on your way to holding your baby now.

Hels - maybe you are holding your little one now?

Jojo - yay so the sweep did do something! hope it progresses from now.

Pips - I'll be competing for the West Coast and you're East Coast :wink: Only kidding - hopefully it wont be long for either of us.

xoxo Ree

Hi

Well it's my scan due date today (MW due date is tomorrow 8th) but woke up early as the boiler has been playing up and our house was freezing cold!

Little one seems very cosy in my tummy and I haven't had any signs so I'm looking forward to the sweep on Friday to hopefully get things on their way.

Last night at parentcraft one of the lady's sister had a c-section in the morning as her waters broke on Saturday, nothing happened after that so they tried to induce her but still nothing so had to do a section, so I guess some people's bodies just don't labour?

Ree & Lisa I was addicted to other check in threads and couldn't believe it was time for me to join one! Wont be long for you - time flies!

Lucy
40 wks

p.s Hels & Petchy - thinking of you, hope your babies are in your arms and Jojo - hope you are in labour!
 
Well

After i thought i had abit of a show me and OH went for a long walk and nothing else happened. Looks like ill be going for my induction Thursday morning. Oh well its only 2 more sleeps.

Still nothing from Hels, must have had her baby.
 
:( surprise surprise! i'm still here
checking in for a new day

i'm now 5days past the original EDD and 3days off the scan one
somehow i get this gut feeling baby wont be here in 3 days
no changes on this coast unfortunately -and had a really good night's sleep (i guess that's a good thing)

do you girls not feel that baby is huge??? i'm freaking that it's going to be harder and harder to push out as the days go by...

jo jo you must be counting hours... poor you. sending you lots of positive waves so it comes soon and you don't have to be induced :D
 
Thanks pips.

I know what you mean about the baby getting heavier and bigger. It feels as though the baby is really low now which is so uncomfortable down below, I really want to go for a mega long walk but its far too painful on my pubic bone.

I read somewhere on the internet that its best to go by your scan date if it was from your dating scan as that will be more accurate than the one the midwife gives you. Ill keep my fingers crossed for you that baby comes on that date.

Do you have a sweep or induction booked?
